I store in the quart mason jars. I mostly just smoke the bubble hash my girl makes and pretty much let the rest of the flower go. Maybe save a zip for sharing with people when they come by. lol

The boveda works good if you like a little moisture in the bud, I prefer mine crumbly dry as it burns better in a joint or blunt, not always going out. The boveda is to keep enough moisture that cure can take place. I don't have any boveda around here anymore.

My plan is to make BHO and edibles out of anything thats not main colas. I too am a joint smoker and prefer it more on the crumbly side than the spongy side.

I did order some boveda packs with my jewelers loupe, so ill have them here if/when i want them.

I have just read so many threads with guys totally messing up entire crops by drying to fast or getting mold on the cure. I want to avoid these things if at all possible lol.

OK. BUY Boveda packs! 62% is the generally accepted % for weed.

When I first bought them I had a stash that was a little dry and it perked back up when it 'rehydrated to the right rH. The thing about the packs is that they have a solution in them, and they add OR take moisture as needed to maintain 62%.

So if you 'over-dry' a little, it won't be an issue. If you are using your tent, you can control everything and that won't be a problem.

I play with all my weed regularly. I love weed! Big buds, little nugs, sugar leaves, the keif from the grinder, that gummy stuff you can scrape off the grinder teeth, etc. I LOVE WEED!!!

I mention this because the only way you'll have a mold or mildew issue during the process is if you forget about it. If you open the jar after a few hours of the first attempt and smell ammonia, roll it back out of the jars and let it dry more.

I don't even cure my stash bud, you should try some. I had some that I cured and some that I didn't. I let my buddy smoke them both and he couldn't tell a difference other than the cured lost a little of the aroma. That said there are many ways to skin a cat, I suggest all new growers try different methods and see how the results please their palate.

I have to agree. After it is dry you get the best high. The issue is long term storage because I am pretty much the only one smoking it. For that, the cure is necessary.

Also, if you are already planning edibles, get a NOVA. I will drop $200 on another one in a heartbeat if this one dies shortly after the warranty runs out.

I'm way too anal over these plants to leave them alone long enough for pm or mold lol that's a very good point.
